Teaching and Research Assistant Institute

The Teaching and Research Assistant Institute provides professional development opportunities for all graduate assistants and is required for all new teaching and research assistants on the Moscow campus. Those students not located on the Moscow campus will be required to complete a Blackboard course. Topics include UI academic policies and procedures, available resources, teaching methods and the responsibilities of conducting responsible research, which are highly beneficial to new TAs and RAs alike.

All new international TAs are required to register for INTR 508-01 and MUST also attend the 1/2 day session on January 13th. We encourage all TA's to read the Teaching Assistant Handbook (see link below) as it contains important information on teaching policies and tips as well as an abundance of campus resources available.
